Melanie Laurent is a French actress, director, model, writer and singer. For her brilliantly performed role in the drama "Don't worry, I'm fine" the actress was awarded the Cesar Award as the most promising. But laurent's worldwide fame was brought by the picture of the legendary quentin Tarantino "Inglourious Basterds", where the Parisian played miraculously survived the fire of the Second World War Jewish girl Shoshanna.

Melanie Laurent is a native of Paris. She was born in February 1983 to a Jewish family where both parents are entertainers.

Laurent's paternal grandfather was the victim of Nazi deportation during World War II. Maternal ancestors developed film aphis. In Melanie's veins the blood of the Sephardics from Tunisia and the Ashkenazis mingled.

Laurent's childhood was spent in the 9th municipal district of Paris, located on the right bank of the Seine. Unsurprisingly, the girl from a young age "breathed" art, because the 9th arrondissement is famous for the fact that it settled the legendary concert hall "Olympia", the museum of wax figures Greven on Montmartre, the Grand Opera and Notre Dame Cathedral. Laurent dreamed of going on stage from a young age and made her first steps in the cinema as a teenager.

She wrote the first page of the cinematic biography of the Parisian when she was 16 years old. Together with a friend, the girl went to the pavilion, where the adventure comedy "Asterix and Obelix vs. Caesar" was filmed - the project was occupied by the father of a friend. There the young Frenchwoman noticed Gerard Depardieu, with a trained eye defining the artistic potential of a stranger. Depardieu gave Melanie a phone assistant and valuable advice: not to learn acting, so as not to spoil natural talent.

Melanie Laurent, who dreamed of filming in the movies, did not wait for a second chance and in 1999 starred in Depardieu's melodrama "The Bridge Between Two Shores." The main roles in the film went to Gerard and the incomparable Carole Bouquet, but the star of young Melanie, who was entrusted to reincarnate in the heroine of the second plan, sparkled brightly.

After the release of the film, the Parisian was bombarded with offers. Soon the movies "This Is My Body," "Kiss WhoEver's Who You Want," "Maximum Extreme" and "My Heart Stopped Beating" were released. In 2008, the premiere of the comedy melodrama "Paris" by Cedric Klapisch, in which Melanie Laurent starred with the stars-compatriots Juliette Binoche and Romain Duris.

At that time in the piggy bank of the young artist already had "Cesar" and the romi Schneider Award for brilliantly played role in the drama "Don't worry, I'm fine", where she got the main role. Director Philippe Liore entrusted Laurent a key character without trial filming and casting, so impressed with the work of the actress in previous films.

In 2009, a talented Frenchwoman invited a talented Frenchwoman to shoot his project, entrusting the image of a Jewish girl in the drama "Inglourious Basterds", which was shot in the genre of alternative history. Working in the film, where the main characters played brad pitt, Thiel Schweiger and Eli Roth, brought Melanie Laurent worldwide fame and nominations for the American award "Cesar" and the British "Empire".

In 2013, the audience saw the Parisian artist in the detective thriller "The Illusion of Deception", shot by the French director, based in Hollywood, Louis Leterrier. Melanie played an Interpol agent and Mark Ruffalo as an FBI agent.

In the same year, the star starred in the films "Night Train to Lisbon" and "The Enemy". The latest film, the psychological detective of the French-Canadian director Denis Villeneuve "The Enemy", was the winner at the international film festival in Catalonia and added popularity to the actress. On the set of the tape, she met Jake Gyllenhaal, Sarah Gadon and Isabella Rossellini.

A striking event in Laurent's creative biography was the melodrama "The Cote d'Azur", in which the main characters were played by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.

Jolie appeared on set as an actress, screenwriter and director of the project. Together with her husband, she played a couple who left bustling New York for the Cote d'Azur to save the marriage. But the couple had to go through a serious test of strength after meeting a hot French couple, played by Melanie Laurent with Parisian counterpart Melville Pupo.

About the personal life of parisians is not so much information: the actress carefully protects the family from the paparazzi and does not appear with her husband on the red carpets and social events.

Melanie Laurent's novels were heard a lot, but the star's comments were never made. There were rumors about the relationship of the actress with the French colleague on the shop Julien Bouascier. But if the novel was, it was not long: soon the beauty was noticed in the company of the Irish composer and vocalist Damian Rees, with whom Laurent recorded a musical collection.

It is possible that the romance with Rhys was invented by journalists of yellow tabloids, because in 2013 at the premiere of "Illusion of Deception" the Parisian appeared in an "interesting" position and soon gave birth to a son Leo. But who his father is, the artist does not say. It is known that with a mysterious stranger Melanie is in an actual marriage.

After all, it was Elizabeth who wrote letters to his bride and sister Pauline on behalf of the captain, wanting to comfort her.

The premiere of the sparkling comedy took place in France on Valentine's Day.
